Ruma has been at the shelter for a while. She was not a friendly cat when she first arrived, but has slowly accepted our volunteers and now loves to be petted and scratched under the chin. She is slated to have dental work done soon and would love to have a home to call her own.
You can visit and adopt Ruma from Clarion PAWS in Shippenville, Monday-Saturday!
All cats have been spayed/neutered, Feline Leukemia and FIV tested and received basic vaccinations, including a rabies vaccine, have been de-wormed, and microchipped.
The Adoption fee is $50 for adults and $90 for kittens under 1 year old.
An adoption application is required and can be downloaded at:
